Re:

Great news

AKP159 and Minor_Legend are joining us in the last 10 man team

I’ll update the sheet a little later

I've not done Mayhem before. Do we bring the bikes we intend to ride, or treat it like a bike show too?

Also, Will I be mocked mercilessly for not liking beer?

I’ve not been before either.... I was taking the idea of showing off our bikes as read!

As for merciless mocking.... I’d be disappointed if there wasn’t any... oh and I shall be mostly drinking a descent single malt until I can no longer feel the bumps!

Mike Muz brought six and rode six whilst Andy (Any123) brought five Kliens and rode none ! But then he was only ever turning up to cook food - take the piss and get bladdered whilst whatching the proceeding

As for show and shine- Most take a few - show ponies and a rider or two but it’s totally up to you

As for drinks - I don’t think anyone will give a rats arse what you partake of.... just so long as you join in with the eating and general merriment

TBH It’s all a load of bollocks and mirth so educated folk should avoid the event like the plaque.

But I go to raise the tone a little. Parents’ evening tonight.

Weston’s taking the edge off.

Hi guys, me & my mate Adrian (I just persuaded him to sign up) 'AKP159' are onboard.
I might build myself a bike for the event, I fancy a Kona otherwise it's my Orange Prestige that I built for the Malverns last year.

It’s great to have you and Adrian joining us ! Really looking forward to the summer and Mayhem


Perhaps not as much as THM will be for the Resolve / Headache tablets tomorrow morning

Re:

Updated with minor_Legend and APK159

I’ve been informed that Neil M will sadly not be able to join us

Unfortunately Retirement commitments have rendered his diary fuller than when in ‘Paid employment’ and he’s had to give up his once a year opportunity to meet THM and the other stalwarts of Mayhem

The upside is Longun May have two riders keen to join - which will pretty much (pending entry fees being collected) return us back to a full house

However if there’s folk out there still sitting in the wings don’t be put off - experience over the past few years has taught me “that when herding cats” at least one melts away and we need reserves

ReganEV bust his hand a few weeks before the last event, and the year before that someone else’s Misses booked a very last minute mega bargain holiday (on the spur of the moment/whim) to the Seychelles which clashed with Mayhem

Not sure where Neil’s going / doing but we’ll raise a glass to yah !
